Surveillance of bacterial colonization and infection in high-risk neonates admitted to tertiary referral hospital in Indonesia.
Article in BMC infectious diseases, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundNeonatal mortality remains high in Indonesia, particularly at our center, Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital, where sepsis is the most common cause of death. However, data on colonization dynamics-which are essential for preventing Multi-drug Resistance Organism (MDRO) acquisition-remain limited, particularly in lower-middle income country (LMIC). This study aims to investigate the dynamics of bacterial colonization among high-risk neonates and determine the pattern and timing of MDRO acquisition.
methodsBetween May and December 2025, 46 neonates were included in this prospective cohort study.
resultsMDRO colonization was detected in 32 neonates (69.6%) who were hospitalized for ≥ 48 h in patient. Outborn neonates had significantly higher risk of MDRO colonization compared with inborn neonates (RR 1.61; 95% CI 1.11-2.33; p = 0.018), with 93.3% outborn neonates testing positive for MDRO colonization. From 146 samples, 110 bacterial isolates were identified, 80 of these (72.7%) were MDROs, the predominant MDRO isolates were Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli, including carbapenem-resistant and ESBL-producing strains. MDRO colonization was detected at admission and increased dynamically during hospitalization particularly among outborn neonates. Blood cultures were performed for 21 neonates with suspected infection, of these, 8 (38.1%) were positive, and 5 (62.5% of the positive cultures) yielded MDROs.
conclusionsThese findings highlight the importance of routine surveillance and consistent adherence to infection prevention control measures, including standard cleaning and disinfection protocols. Regular evaluation of separation between inborn and outborn units also essential to reduce the burden of MDROs and improve neonatal outcomes.
